    Friends,

    I was at GT yesterday PM & counted over a dozen Model 870 riot-guns on their rack, that were priced from 179.oo to 229.oo each
    (Oddly, the 2 CHEAPEST shotguns had RIFLE SIGHTS & recoil pads.)

    All of the riot-guns seem to be perfectly usable "as is" but need at least a through cleaning & lubrication. Some of them could use a DIY refinishing, too.

    Btw, I do NOT work for GT. Instead, I'm just a satisfied customer.

    yours, satx

    Hoji,

    Some of each, I think.

    The 2 riot-guns w/rifle sights looked like civilian models. = Btw. BOTH showed lots of minor scratches in the receivers. IF I decide to go back & buy one/both of the rifled-sighted ones, they will get the Ceracote OR the BBQ pit paint treatment to camouflage the scratches & to CUT shine..

    The few they had a week ago were Police Magnums with plastic furniture.

    Some 500s for good prices too.

    They did have a few with wood furniture but I can't say what they were exactly.

    Worth the stop though.
